“…Three variables were used to assess the treatment technique's effectiveness: (i) pain intensity as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS); (ii) shoulder range of motion as measured by a goniometer (shoulder abduction, flexion, and medial rotation); and (iii) functional disability as measured by SPADI (Shoulder pain disability index). The Visual Analog Scale [25], Manual goniometer [26], and SPADI are all reliable and valid techniques, as evidenced by previous studies [27]. On the first day (Day 1) and at the end of the first week (Day 5), VAS, goniometer, and SPADI were used to assess all 30 patients.…”

Introduction. Physical therapy plays a significant role in managing frozen shoulder (FS), and it includes applying manual mobilization techniques to reduce pain, restore the extensibility of the shoulder capsule and increase range of motion (ROM). Objective: To compare the effectiveness of Gong's mobilization (GM) and Spencer technique (ST) in reducing pain, functional disability, and improving shoulder ROM on FS patients. Methods. A pre-and-post-test experimental study design was adopted, where thirty patients (n = 30) diagnosed with unilateral FS were selected and randomized into two groups of 15 using a simple random technique. Subjects in experimental group 1(EG-I) received ST technique and ultrasound therapy (US), with Codman's pendular exercise (CPE). Whereas experimental group II (EG-II) received GM technique and US, with CPE. The intervention lasted five days and consisted of one session every day. Three variables were assessed to study the treatment effectiveness both at the pre-intervention and at the end of the first week: (i) pain intensity as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale; (ii) shoulder ROM as measured by a goniometer (abduction, flexion, and medial rotation (MR)); and (iii) functional disability as measured by SPADI (Shoulder Pain Disability Index). Results. The EG-II showed a better reduction in pain intensity (mean difference (MD) of 0.87), SPADI (MD of 7), and increase in shoulder ROM (MD: 'abduction': 15.76; 'Flexion': 15.67; 'MR': 10.33) than the EG-I at 0.05 levels of significance. Conclusions. Gong's mobilization was found to be more effective than Spencer's technique with ultrasound therapy and CPE in treating patients with FS.

“…For spine pelvic parameters measurement reliability, the ICC of the measured parameters' value between evaluators 1 and 2 was calculated for each radiological examination. ICC results were defined as <.40, poor reliability; ≥.40 to <.80, good reliability; and ≥.80, excellent reliability based on a previous report 17) . P-values of <.05 were considered statistically significant.…”

We investigated the relationships between patient factors, including obesity, osteopenia, and scoliosis, and the reliability of measures of the spinopelvic sagittal parameters using conventional Xradiography (Xp) and slot-scanning Xp devices (EOS) and examined the differences in interobserver measurement reliability between them. Methods:We retrospectively enrolled 55 patients (52.7 ± 25.3 years, 27 females) with conventional whole-spine Xp and EOS images taken within three months. Patients were classified according to obesity (Body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m 2 ), osteopenia (T score < −1), and scoliosis (Cobb angle > 20°). The associations between patient factors and reliability of radiological parameter measurements were examined with interobserver intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), defined as poor, <.40; good, 40-.79; and excellent, ≥.80.

Abstract:Study design: Randomized control trial. Objective: To measure the effect muscle energy technique(MET) for the glenohumeral joint external rotators to improve the range of motion and strength of internal rotators in athletes with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD). Background: Glenohumeral internal rotation deficit is one of the leading causes of impairments in overhead throwing athletes. Anatomical GIRD is though considered to be normal in overhead athletes but it may further lead to osseous and capsuloligamentous changes in the glenohumeral joint if not treated. The muscle energy technique protocol aimed at improving the range of motion and strength of the internal rotators of the glenohumeral joint. It has been hypothesized that MET will increase the glenohumeral internal rotation ROM and strength in athletes with GIRD. Methods: thirty overhead athletes were conveniently assigned in two groups. MET for glenohumeral joint external rotators (n=15) and stretching for glenohumeral joint external rotators (n=15). We measured the range of motion of glenohumeral joint internal rotation and strength of glenohumeral joint internal rotators, of the dominant shoulder at 0 day, 1 st week and 2 nd week. At the end of 2 nd week data analysis was done using one way ANOVA and post hoc tukey's test and significant results were found. (p < 0.05). Results: The group treated with MET for the external rotators had a significant increase in internal rotation at the end of 2 nd week. The group treated with stretching for external rotators do not showed a significant increase in internal rotation. Conclusion: It is concluded that MET is an effective treatment for increasing the ROM and strength of internal rotation at the glenohumeral joint in asymptomatic overhead athletes. Therefore application of MET for the external rotators may be useful for increasing the ROM as well as strength in overhead athletes.
